The Adi Purana. There was no king on earth who was his equal in matters of diplomacy, etc. The six secrets were fulfilled in him alone, O Lord. ||28|| He honored the rulers of the provinces who had come to him from every country, and with his grace, he crossed many provinces. ||26|| His hand was never stained with trade, nor was his bow ever strung. He conquered the east solely by the power of his dominion. ||30|| He saw young cowherds in the outskirts of the Gokulas, their hair tied with forest vines, guarding the cows. ||31|| Their faces were covered with drops of sweat born of the labor of churning, they danced playfully, shaking their breasts as they churned the curd, their arms were weary from pulling the churning rope, their clothes were loose, the cloth on their breasts had slipped down, the lines of the three-fold rope were clearly visible on their thin bellies, the large drops of curd scattered over their bodies from the impact of the churning stick, creating a strange beauty, they had begun to sing along with the sound of the churning, their hair ties had come loose, and they looked like the flags of Cupid, and seeing the cowherd women in the courtyards of the cowsheds, churning the curd at will, and talking amongst themselves, the Lord Bharata was somewhat anxious. ||32-36|| The forest dwellers, who lived in the forest filled with wild elephants, saw the Lord and offered him the tusks of wild elephants and pearls. ||37||
